Hello,
I had a strange set of circumstances happen and i am not sure whats causing my little dot mk2 to emit processing noise from the cpu - that what it sounds like at any rate.
So I am not sure if this has any contributing factors to what has occurred but i will explain as i am not that technical.
So i added some Active speakers to the setup. They are Alesis mk2 M1 active speakers. I ran the output from the little dot mk2 directly into the back of them and everything seems to have worked just fine. I have been running this for about 2 weeks and then I started getting the noise of CPU (processing noise) coming through the speakers. So i googled and a suggestion was to reset the BIOS to default. I did this and as i tried to reboot the PSU failed. not power and not turning on the computer. swapped out the psu and the computer is working fine again. However the computer noise is still there.
So at this point i am very confused as to what could causing it.
If the LD MK2 is connected to the headphone jack or through my smsl idea DAC i get the processing noise. I have tried a couple different cables and still the same noise. If i use the Dac and head phones no such sound, headphones by them selves again no processing sound. anything to do with the LD mk2 and i get the processing noise coming through.
If anyone has any suggestion, please let me know!
the only thing i can think of at this stage is the little dot mk2 has played its last song..
Edit : If i plug the little dot mk2 into my phone it works perfectly with no processing noise.
Arrgh lost for what to try next or.. What is causing the processing noise feedback?
Thanks
Daniel
